COMMUNICATION – SAFETY – TRANSMITTER – (C/S – TX)
This SKYTECH remote control has a COMMUNICATION –SAFETY function built into its software. It provides an extra margin of safety
when the TRANSMITTER is out of the normal 20 foot operating range of the receiver.
The COMMUNICATION – SAFETY feature operates in the following manner, in all OPERATING MODES – ON/ ON THERMO/ ON
TIMER.
At all times and in all OPERATING MODES, the transmitter sends an RF signal every fifteen (15) minutes, to the receiver,
indicating that the transmitter is within the normal operating range of 20 feet. Should the receiver NOT receive a transmitter
signal every 15 minutes, the IC software, in the RECEIVER, will begin a 2-HOUR (120-minute) countdown timing function. If
during this 2-hour period, the receiver does not receive a signal from the transmitter, the receiver will shut down the appliance
being controlled by the receiver. The RECEIVER will then emit a series of rapid “beeps” for a period of 10 seconds. Then
after 10 seconds of rapid beeping, the RECEIVER will continue to emit a single “beep” every 4 seconds until a transmitter
MODE
Button is pressed to reset the receiver. The intermittent 4-second beeping will go on for as long
As there is power from the thermopile.
To “reset” the RECEIVER and operate the appliance, you must press the MODE button on the
transmitter. The word ON must display on the LCD screen. By turning the system to ON, the
COMMUNICATION -SAFETY operation is overridden and the system will return to normal
operation depending on the MODE selected at the transmitter. The COMMUNICATION –
SAFETY feature will reactivate should the transmitter be taken out of the normal operating
range.
REMOTE RECEIVER
The remote receiver operates on power from the thermopile. It is recommended that the thermopile voltage with the main burner OFF
be no less than 450 millivolts for proper microprocessor performance. IMPORTANT: It is essential that proper voltage from the
thermopile be maintained for proper operation of the remote receiver.
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the transmitter to control system operation. It emits
one beep when it receives an ON or OFF command manually, but no beep when cycling on and off automatically in THERMO mode.
The remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the MODE of operation: ON/REMOTE/OFF
•
With the slide switch in the ON position (toward the LEARN button), the system
will remain on until the slide switch is placed in the OFF or REMOTE position.
•
With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the system will only
operate if the remote receiver receives commands
from the transmitter.
•
With the slide switch in the OFF position (away from the LEARN button), the
system is off.
•
It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the off position if you will
be away from your home for an extended period of time. If the remote
receiver is mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the
OFF position also functions as a safety “lock-out” by both turning the system
off and rendering the remote receiver inoperative.
THERMO- SAFETY FEATURE – RECEIVER (T/S –RX)
This SKYTECH remote control has a THERMO- SAFETY feature that is built into the system’s RECEIVER. This feature is
temperature- activated and provides an extra margin of safety when the RECEIVER is operating where ambient temperatures exceed
160
0
F
degrees inside the receiver case.
The THERMO-SAFETY feature, in the RECEIVER, operates in the following manner, when the appliance is in operation.
The receiver is thermally protected from extreme heat conditions. Heat can have negative effect on the operation of the receiver’s
microprocessors.
